About Lane Realty and Tammy Lankford

Lane Realty has been selling property on Lake Sinclair since 1985. I started to work for Jim Lane in 1992 ( I was the secretary and did not have my license yet). I was bored to tears in the office all day and the agents were having all the fun. In the summer of 1994 I got my license and in 1995 purchased the company. Eatonton is my hometown, I was born and raised here and have played on Lake Sinclair all my life. My great uncle used to own a bait and tackle shop right across the street from the power plant. There are some great things about Lake Sinclair you should know... it stays full even in drought situations. There are dams at both ends of Lake Sinclair. The north dam connects to another lake built as a "holding tank" to keep Lake Sinclair at full pool. The power company moves about 1 to 2 feet of water back and forth on a daily basis through this dam.

I love Lake Sinclair and invite you to come visit and get to know it and I'm sure you will love it too. And no doubt if you buy here you will have great neighbors and friends. If you want to be notified of what is new on the market you can set up a new listing notification and you are welcome to visit and search all listed homes to see everything available. And if you buy a house from me.. I have a feeling you might come to think of me as one of your friends. Ask some of my clients and they'll tell you we don't stop our service after the contract is written OR after the sale is closed. We come with the house. We'll be glad to assist you even after your purchase... Okay we don't cut grass, but we recommend a great company that will.

And...

about me I was born right here in Eatonton and have lived here all my life. I have 7 generations buried in the local cemetery so when I say I'm from Eatonton, literally my family has lived in this area for more than 200 years. I know the area, know the lake, know most of your neighbors and will tell you the good and the bad things about things in these parts. I didn't really choose a career in real estate, it sort of found me. I couldn't be happier. I love matching the perfect home with the perfect buyer and helping a seller make a smooth transition when they decide to sell their home. I keep informed on current continuing education classes in the real estate industry and I know my market and my lake well. Call me if you want me on your team for buying or selling on Lake Sinclair.

I just purchased my first home with Tammy, and she was absolutely the right choice. She knew the area in and out, answered all of my questions above and beyond what I needed, and always went the extra mile. She always returned my many calls and emails promptly. She didn't pressure me into finding the perfect one (and I dragged her all over this town on 12 hour viewing marathons), or to go above budget, nor did she let me make any bad decisions in the name of a sale, either. I felt no stone was left unturned and everything was to the letter when it came time for contracts. Each and every referral she has given me from lender to lawyer to plumber has been exceptional as well. I've been in the house a week now, and the service hasn't quit. I wouldn't hesitate to work with Tammy again, and will 100% do so when it's time to. Too often you either get someone friendly OR someone excellent at their job, but Tammy was genuinely both. I came out of this satisfied with my purchase experience and final pricing, and knowing I have a new friend and good neighbor. When it's time to list this house and start the purchase process again, I won't hesitate to call Tammy Lankford.

I purchased my home from Lane Realty in 2004. 10 years into my ownership I began to have health issues that made me decide now was the time to sell my home at Lake Sinclair and move to live closer to my family. I hired Tammy Lankford to list my home. She always let me know when buyers were looking at it and kept me informed. Once we got an offer that I accepted she kept me posted on when the buyers inspections were done and I should start to pack and move. I'd certainly recommend her to anyone looking to buy or sell in the Lake Sinclair area.

Tammy is the most knowledgeable real estate professional on Lake Sinclair. I am sure that growing up in the area and having family live everywhere in the county gives her insight other salespersons do not have today. Plus as the Broker/Owner of Lane Realty she has decades of experience in the real estate business. Potential buyers and sellers are always amazed at her ability to price and buy property as quickly and efficiently as she does day after day. If you have any real estate business needs you will find no one more qualified to handle your issues than Tammy, owner of Lane Realty on Pea Ridge Road, Eatonton, Ga.

My wife and I just purchased a lake home on Sinclair with Tammy Lankford as our agent. We were extremely pleased with her. She was relaxed, patient and not pushy at all. She led us to the type homes we were looking for until we found the right one. Her knowledge of the area and advice on issues to look out for was a huge asset in our search. In addition, she was a big help in dealing with the mortgage company with whom we had issues with so we could get our home closed in a somewhat timely fashion.
We feel that on top of having a great real estate agent, we've also gained a new friend.

Thanks to my friends at Lane Realty. After trying to work with one of the other real estate firms at Lake Sinclair with negative results, I decided to search for property on my own. In April of this year I walked into Lane Realty to ask about a property I had found and discovered it was already under contract. Mrs. Nancy Ewing asked me if she could be of service to me. I described the property I was looking for and the parameters of my price range. Nancy showed me a property that proved to be exactly what I was interested in and in the price range we had discussed. By the first part of May we had closed on the property and it belonged to me. Lane Realty not only worked hard for me, they also made the experience a pleasure. Lane Realty will have all my future business because they earned it. Sincerely, John
LAST OCTOBER WE PURCHASED OUR THIRD HOUSE ON THE LAKE. WE HAVE DEALT WITH SEVERAL DIFFERENT COMPANIES AND NEVER RECEIVED THE SERVICE WE DID FROM JUSTINE GREENE WITH LANE REALTY. DURING THE WHOLE PROCESS SHE LISTENED TO WHAT WE HAD TO SAY AND LINED UP SEVERAL HOUSES FOR US TO LOOK AT. EACH TIME WE WENT OUT SHE HAD MADE APPOINTMENTS FOR EACH LISTING SO WE COULD TAKE OUR TIME AND EVALUATE EACH ONE. SHE ALWAYS HAD COPIES OF EACH LISTING SO WE HAD A GOOD IDEA OF WHAT WE WERE GOING TO SEE. AFTER LOOKING AT EACH PROPERTY WE SAT DOWN AND WENT OVER EACH ONE AS TO WHAT WE LIKED AND DIDN'T LIKE. EVEN THOUGH THIS PROCESS TOOK SEVERAL WEEKS SHE KEPT IN CONTACT WITH US AND WAS AVAILABLE WHEN WE NEEDED HER. THIS WAS ONE OF THE BEST TRANSACTIONS WE HAVE BEEN INVOLVED IN. SHE WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL AND KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT EACH PROPERTY. The Colemans

I was looking for a retirement home at Lake Sinclair. After not finding a home to offer on with another agent in her company, Tammy recommended a few more homes to look at and one of them turned out to be the perfect place for me and my 4-legged children right on the lake. It is just perfect for us with the solitude of living on the lake, neighbors just close enough and and close to my family and Milledgeville, so all the conveniences are nearby for this city girl. Tammy was also instrumental in connecting me with a dynamite lender from whom I was able to get a fantastic fixed rate. As if that weren't enough, she continued to be supportive by recommending exceptional home inspector, surveyor and other professionals whose work she knew and could recommend. It is vital to have a knowledgeable and skilled realtor when you are buying in an area unfamiliar to you. Thanks Tammy for helping me find my affordable perfect retirement home!
